In my opinion, he has the best technique in the world, pleasure to watch. If everyone batted in the same style, the game would be a much prettier spectacle.

He has an elegant technique, but it's certainly not something you'd teach kids to emulate. He can get away with no feet movement and playing away from the body because he's an excellent player, but when you're teaching someone cricket you'd rather they learn from watching a Kallis or a Dravid rather than a Martyn or a Sehwag.
